    6% of six states. Because of the Electoral College, any majority wins all of a states votes (for most states), regardless of 51% or 75%.

    … and America is supposed to represent the standard for the rest of the world’s democracies?

    In that system, people have absolutely no power other than to feel good about themselves while having a confused look on their face.

    If your electoral system is so complicated and convoluted to the point where elections representing 300 million people are decided by only 6% of the population who will more than likely be influenced by those with 99% of the wealth … why bother referring to it as a democracy?
